Mahasu Devta Temple, Hanol, Hindu temple in Hanol, India
The Mahasu Devta Temple stands on the eastern bank of the Tons River, featuring a design that combines stone and wood in Kath-Kuni architectural style.
Built in the 9th century, the temple gained recognition from the Archaeological Survey of India as a Monument of National Importance due to its architectural significance.
The temple hosts a three-day Mahasu Devta Fair each August, drawing the Jaunsari tribe who perform traditional music and folk dances during processions.
